Looking at the OP's macro comment "Saves a copy of the document in a
separate file" I suspect the requirement might be to save a second copy in
another folder. That can be done from the first macro simply by adding the
required paths. There are some examples at

You want both macros to do the same thing. Therefore, use exactly
the same code in both of them - FileSave() and FileSaveAs
With ActiveDocument
.SaveAs .FormFields("formfieldbookmarkname").Result
End With

Ahh.. Macro. Very cool, it works!
One more question... I tried to setup the "SaveAs" fuction as well
and did not find the correct syntax, can you look at this and
correct my mistake? Thanks again
Sub FileSave()
'
' FileSave Macro
' Saves the active document or template
'
With ActiveDocument
.SaveAs .FormFields("Company_Name").Result
End With
End Sub
Sub FileSaveAs()
'
' FileSaveAs Macro
' Saves a copy of the document in a separate file
'
With ActiveDocument
Dialogs .SaveAs.FormFields("Company_Name").Result
End With
End Sub

It needs to be located in the template from which you are creating
the document.

Looks like this will do it.... but I'm not sure where this
statement needs
to
be placed. anywhere on the document? How do I get in the "mode"
to enter
the statement, IE. Insert field?
Thanks for you help, and baby stepping me through

I would like to have the file save as one of my bookmarks when I
save the
file for the first time. Usually the default is the first
several words
at
the beginning of the document, but I would like to have it
default to
one
of
the form fields I have the users type in. Is that possible?
Thanks
